Explanation:

<em>1. "stood like a pillar of cloud torn"</em>

Figurative language: <u>a Simile.</u>

Meaning: A Simile is a figurative language that makes a comparison between two things of a different kind to make a vivid description using 'like' or 'as'. In this example, the author is comparing someone who stood to a 'pillar of cloud torn'. This compares how unadmiring a torn pillar of cloud is with the way the person stood.

2.<em> "faded banners of the departed summer ancient blood-stains against the dark-blue sky" </em>

Figurative language: <u>a Metaphor</u>

Meaning: a Metaphor is symbolic (non-literal) comparison of an object or action with another thing, action, or idea in other to explain an idea. Hence, the expression, "<em>summer ancient blood-stains" </em>refers to horrific events in the past that resulted in <em>"dark-blue sky"</em> (or grief).

Please help... I will give brainliest to the correct answer
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Impending doom to "Deep in debt" and "When the crash should come" if you look at the tone and subjects, they both seem to hint or foreshadow at something negative, dangerous, or deadly to come. Rags to Riches for "The fact had gone all abroad", and "Why, isn't six months". These talk of how someone from a lower class salary or social status soon rose the ranks, in a quick matter of time. You could say they went from Rags to Riches. Wealth worship goes to "Please get those things off sir". The character speaking is glorifying the clothing, aka worshiping wealth, just look at the adjectives...

I hope this helps, just work hard and you'll get it eventually.
